1 Masolo ya Kala 28
1 Davidi abengisaki bakambi nyonso ya Isalaele, na Yelusalemi: bakonzi ya mabota, bakonzi ya masanga ya basoda oyo bazalaki kosalela mokonzi, bakonzi ya bankoto mpe ya bankama ya basoda, babateli bozwi mpe bibwele ya mokonzi, bato oyo balandelaka bana na ye ya mibali elongo na basali ya ndako ya mokonzi, basoda ya mpiko mpe bato nyonso ya lokumu.
And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, to Jerusalem.
2 Mokonzi Davidi atelemaki mpe alobaki: — Boyoka ngai, bandeko na ngai mpe bato na ngai: Nazalaki na likanisi ya kotonga esika ya kopema mpo na Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe, enyatelo ya makolo ya Nzambe na biso; bongo nabongisaki biloko mpo na kotonga yango.
Then David the king stood upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in my heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:
3 Kasi Nzambe alobaki na ngai: « Okotonga ndako mpo na Kombo na Ngai te, pamba te ozali moto ya bitumba mpe osopaki makila. »
But God said to me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood.
4 Nzokande, Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, aponaki ngai kati na libota na ngai mobimba mpo ete nazala mokonzi ya Isalaele mpo na libela. Aponaki Yuda mpo ete azala mokonzi; mpe kati na ndako ya Yuda, aponaki libota ya tata na ngai; mpe kati na bana mibali ya tata na ngai, asepelaki kokomisa ngai mokonzi ya Isalaele mobimba.
However the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel:
5 Kati na bana na ngai nyonso ya mibali, pamba te Yawe apesi ngai bango ebele, aponaki Salomo, mwana na ngai ya mobali, mpo ete avanda na Kiti ya Bokonzi ya Yawe kati na Isalaele.
And of all my sons, (for the LORD hath given me many sons, ) he hath chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.
6 Alobaki na ngai: « Mwana na yo, Salomo, nde akotonga Ndako na Ngai mpe lopango na Ngai, pamba te naponaki ye mpo ete azala mwana mpo na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakozala tata mpo na ye.
And he said to me, Solomon thy son, he shall build my house and my courts: for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his father.
7 Nakolendisa bokonzi na ye mpo na libela soki akangami makasi na mibeko na Ngai ndenge azali kosala yango lelo. »
Moreover I will establish his kingdom for ever, if he shall be constant to do my commandments and my judgments, as at this day.
8 Sik’oyo, napesi bino mokumba liboso ya Isalaele mobimba, ya lisanga ya Yawe, mpe liboso ya Nzambe na biso, oyo azali koyoka biso: Bosala keba mpo na kolanda mitindo nyonso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpo ete bozwa mokili oyo ya kitoko mpe kotika yango lokola libula epai ya bakitani na bino mpo na libela.
Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the congregation of the LORD, and in the audience of our God, keep and seek for all the commandments of the LORD your God: that ye may possess this good land, and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever.
9 Bongo, yo Salomo, mwana na ngai, yeba Nzambe ya tata na yo mpe salela Ye na motema na yo mobimba mpe na esengo; pamba te Yawe amonaka kino na bozindo ya mitema nyonso mpe asosolaka makanisi na yango nyonso. Soki oluki Ye, okomona Ye; kasi soki atiki Ye, akobwaka yo mpo na libela.
And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou shalt seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou shalt forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.
10 Yeba sik’oyo ete Yawe aponi yo mpo ete otongela Ye Ndako oyo ekozala Esika na Ye ya Bule. Yika mpiko mpe sala mosala.
Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.
11 Davidi apesaki Salomo, mwana na ye ya mobali, elili ya ndako moke ya kokotela na Tempelo, ya bandako mosusu ya Tempelo, ya bibombelo na yango, ya bashambre na yango ya likolo, ya bashambre na yango ya kati mpe ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu.
Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses of it, and of its treasuries, and of its upper chambers, and of its inner parlours and of the place of the mercy seat,
12 Apesaki ye elili ya nyonso oyo molimo atiaki na makanisi na ye na tina na lopango ya Tempelo ya Yawe, ya bashambre nyonso ya zingazinga, ya biloko ya talo ya Ndako ya Nzambe mpe ya biloko ya bule.
And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the surrounding chambers, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:
13 Davidi apesaki ye mibeko na tina na masanga ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya Balevi, na tina na misala nyonso mpe bisalelo nyonso ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.
14 Mpo na bisalelo ya mosala, Davidi atalisaki kilo ya wolo oyo ekoki mpo na bisalelo nyonso ya wolo; kilo ya palata oyo ekoki mpo na bisalelo nyonso ya palata:
He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every kind of service:
15 kilo ya wolo mpo na bitelemiselo ya minda basala na wolo mpe minda na yango ya wolo kolanda kilo ya etelemiselo moko na moko ya minda elongo na minda na yango; kilo ya palata mpo na etelemiselo moko na moko ya minda, basala na palata mpe minda na yango ya palata kolanda mosala ya etelemiselo moko na moko ya mwinda;
Even the weight for the lampstands of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every lampstand, and for its lamps: and for the lampstands of silver by weight, both for the lampstand, and also for its lamps, according to the use of every lampstand.
16 kilo ya wolo mpo na mesa moko na moko ya mapa oyo ebulisami, kilo ya palata mpo na bamesa ya palata;
And by weight he gave gold for the tables of showbread, for every table; and likewise silver for the tables of silver:
17 kilo ya wolo ya peto mpo na bakanya, basani oyo basalelaka mpo na kosopa mayi, mpe mpo na bakopo ya milayi; kilo ya wolo mpo na kopo moko na moko ya moke moko; kilo ya palata mpo na moko na moko ya bakopo mike ya palata;
Also pure gold for the fleshhooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basins he gave gold by weight for every basin; and likewise silver by weight for every basin of silver:
18 mpe kilo ya wolo ya peto mpo na etumbelo ya malasi. Apesaki ye lisusu elili ya shar ya basheribe ya wolo oyo mapapu na yango ezali ya kofungwama mpe ezipi Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe.
And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.
19 Davidi alobaki: — Nyonso oyo nazali na yango na mokanda oyo, ekomami na loboko na Yawe; Ye moko apesi ngai mayele mpo na kososola misala nyonso oyo elili ezali kotalisa.
All this, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing by his hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.
20 Davidi alobaki lisusu na Salomo, mwana na ye ya mobali: — Yika mpiko mpe sala mosala! Kobanga te, kozala mpe na somo te; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na ngai, azali elongo na yo; akotika yo te mpe akobwaka yo te kino mosala nyonso ya Tempelo ya Yawe ekosila.
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.
21 Ezali mpe na masanga ebele ya Banganga-Nzambe mpe ya Balevi oyo babongisami mpo na misala ya ndenge na ndenge kati na Tempelo ya Yawe. Na mosala oyo nyonso, okozwa lisungi ya bato oyo bayebi mosala malamu, oyo bamipesa bango moko mpo na misala ya ndenge na ndenge. Bakonzi mpe bato nyonso bakotosa mitindo na yo.
And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at thy command.
